SPOKANE, Wash. - Larry Butler, 72, passed away after a lifetime of battling health issues in Spokane, Wash., where he had been a resident for many years. Larry was born in Chinook, Mont., but was raised in Gooding. He was the son of K.T. and Thelma Butler and was raised on their farm northwest of Gooding with his siblings, Cleo, Dwain, Nayoma, Dale and Milt. He ranched with his father and brothers in Fairfield as well, until the kidney disease he had been diagnosed with as a young man necessitated moving to the Spokane region. He moved with his wife at the time, Joan Rock and his two young children, Nicki and Lance. There he became a pioneer in kidney dialysis, being one of the first in the nation to do home dialysis. He went back to school and became a junior high school teacher. In 1968, Larry underwent a kidney transplant, receiving a kidney from his brother, Dale. He went on to live many normal healthy years, continuing to enjoy the outdoors. His health declined eventually and he returned to dialysis, but not before he had the distinction of being the longest-lived recipient of a single transplant. Larry re-married and had a son named Kenion Taylor after his father. Larry loved hiking and fishing, picking huckleberries, being a fan of his granddaughter's athletics, and visiting with people. He had many things he still wanted to do but finally knew when he had fought the battle long enough. He is survived by his wife, Claudia; daughter, Nicki Moberg and her husband, John and their four daughters, Jordan Parker, Alyssa Reeves, and Claire and Darby Moberg; his son, Kenion and his mother Kathleen; brother, Dale Butler; and sisters, Cleo Simon and Nayoma Bird. He was preceded in death by his son, Lance Butler; brothers, Dwain and Milton Butler; and his parents. An informal memorial will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, July 26, at the home of Dale and Betty Butler in Gooding.
